Things You Need to Know
Urinary catheters are used to drain urine. Catheter management includes insertion, maintenance, and monitoring.
This can be necessary due to surgery, medical conditions, or mobility challenges.
A nurse makes sure that the process is smooth, hygienic, and as comfortable as possible.

What Makes A Good Personal Care Assistant
Examples of Catheters We Manage
Not all catheters are the same. Different types require different levels of care:
- Indwelling urinary catheters (Foley catheters)
These are placed in the bladder and left in for extended use.
They are ideal for people who need continuous drainage - like post-surgical patients or those with mobility issues.
- Intermittent catheters
These are used for short periods of time and removed after each use.
They help individuals who can urinate on their own but may have difficulty emptying their bladder completely.
- Suprapubic catheters
They are inserted through the lower abdomen for long-term needs.
This type is often chosen for people who require catheterization for extended periods but want to reduce the risk of infection from a urethral catheter.
Taking Breaks When We Need To
